FORAKER'S DRUBBING.
Insulting Language Towards His Hosts
Genteel Sterilization.
NosgriVs ID,erirrD

NdshriHe American.
The dispatch sent out by the Associated
Press protesting to give an account Of the
episode between Cows. Wilson and For
aker at Wheeling, w. Va, on the occasion
of the reunion Of the c. A. r. was incOr-
rect in the impression that was left on the
public mind by its wording. The in
ference would be gathered from that dis
patch that Foraker was guilty of the use
ofinsulting language towards Gov. Wilson.
Such was not the case, nor would he have
dared do so. Since he has returned to
Ohio and is entirely out Of the reach OF
Gov. Wilson, he will in all probability, in
the next speech he is called on to make,
do so. His insults were directed at Presi-
dent Cleveland, and he made some dirty
filings at "rebel" soldiers, for which Gov.
Wilson promptly brought him to taw.
The conduct of Gov. Foraker under the
circumstance, being guest in the State,
was the most indecent ruffianism and i'll
breeding that any public man has been
guilty OF, and the genteel scarifcation
given him by Gov. Wilson, and which he
so richly deserved, will be applauded from
one end of the country 10 the other. The
decent Republicans present were not only
disgusted with Foraker's flagrant display
of bad manners but were mortified at his
inability to cope with Wilson in the heated
discussion, while, on the other hand, the
Democrats were proud of Wilson'S manly
course and his evident superiority in the
rencounter Foraker disgraced himself
from the standpoint of good manners, and
Wilson doubly disgraced him in the men
tai conflict.

CHICAGO, September 1.-The RdilIcdy
AGE tomorrow will say: 1t now seems
probable that the number Of miles ofnew
railroad constructed in the United States
in 1887 will be about IL, 600. This figure
is the greatest on record. 1t has never
been approached except in 1SS2, when the
total was II ,56S miles. Track laying for
1897, up to September I, aggregates 6,462
miles. Kansas still continues far in the
lead over the other States in the work of

Shameful Spectacle Presented by Gov. For.
aker-RebeIlion Twaddle.
Richmond Despatch.
1t was a shameful spectacle which was
presented to the world in Wheeling last
week when Governor Foraker abused the
hospitality OF that West Virginia city.
The reader knows already how Governor
Foraker demeaned himself on that occa-
sion.
Recollect that the very money which
Governor Foraker and his crowd were
spending was obtained from the people OF
West Virginia, and that Governor Wilson
was thus taunted in a city which was for
years the capital Of that State. As the
Washington PoS remarks, Governor For
aker wss in Wheeling as guest, and, had
he not been blatherskite, would have re-
Trained from referring in his speeches to
any subject likely to annoy or insult his
entertainer"

for the present at least, be no changes IN

the General Manager as heretofore.
1t Is now very generally believed that

anxious to dispose OF the road, and the
announcement Of its sale at any time will
create no surprise here.
Vice President Spencer, in answer 10 in
Quiry on the subject 10 day. confirmed the
disposal OF the plant Of the r. so. Express
Company, and of the execution Of con-
tract between the railroad company and
the United States Express Company for
period OF thirty years, but declined TO give
any further particulars. He, however, re
garded the arrangement n quits AdvAn-
tageous to the into rests both Of the railroad
company and the express company. Mr.
Spencer stated that there WAS no truth
whatever in the statements rs TO negotia-

To TIE Editor Of n, Rs?fSlsr.
The West Virginia State Fair will bring
many strangers into the city next week
who will want To see that wonderful ban
ner. Don't you think il will be an emi-
nently proper thing to do to hang out the
banner which did such service at the late
Reunion? The now famous though not blood
stained or bullet pierced flag with its pat
riOtic prayer for plain, brave, square Gro
YER Cleveland will surely prove an object
of great interest to the honest yeOmanry OF
the country and their wives, daughters and
sweethearts.
What say Won of the suggestion?
SURVIVOR OF THE LATE UNPLEASANT
NESS.
UheeIiag, ". Ia, September l, 1881.
The REGISTER has no hesitancy in stat
ing what it thinks of such suggestion.
We have no doubt that the banner, which
is the innocent marker of an epoch in our
political history, would be an object Of H.
tense curiosity in any part Of this land
As simply patriotic decoration, which 1t
WIS solely intended to be, and had recent
events connected with it not happened, the
REGISTER would not object to displaying
it at any time upon request. But those
events have made that banner sacred as
the symbol of true patriotism, and our
readers will heartily coincide with Us that
it would he maniiestly improper to parade
1t as an object of curiosity.
When the time comes again for patriotic
decoration the famous banner may be seen
BY all who visit Wheeling.

Tho Democratic campaign was

ty last night with speech by Con
gresham Martin A. Foran, of Cleve
land. The meeting WIS one of the
most successful open-air gatherings
that the Democracy have had in
this county for years. 1t was held
in the very heart OF the most pop
ulous labor district in the city. and
Mr.. Foran addressed an audience of
nearly FIVE thousand workingmen
who cheered bis remarks to the
echo. He is the leading labor cham
pion of the day, and his work in
Congress, to which tody he has
been elected three times in success
ion from a strong Republican dis
trict. has resulted in much useful
and beneficial legislation. Mr.. For
an. therefore, can not be accused of
demagogueisms or aay of the other
isms which are generally ascribed
to men known simply az agitators.
HIS speech last night was noted for
the brilliant and intelligent pre-
sentation of the labor problem and
the relations of The workingmen to
the Democratic party. The DEM
ocratic CLUBS, including the Miami
club of Hamilton, showed that
lethargy had not taken possession Of
the party by turning out very hand
